A heavy cabinet with a mass of 135kg is transported on the truck platform. Assume that the friction between the cabinet and the platform is so great that the cabinet cannot slip, but can instead tip over. The dimensions shown in the cabinet figure are hG = 1.8m, xG = 1.0m and b = 3.4m. How high can the maximum acceleration of the truck to the right be without the cabinet tipping over? What is the angular acceleration of the cabinet in the situation under consideration

For the delivery truck shown: The mass of the truck is 4000 kg. The horizontal distance from the rear tires to the center of mass, G, is L1 = 3 m The vertical distance from the ground to G is d = 3m The horizontal distance from the rear tires to the front tires is L2 = 5 m. d The delivery truck is traveling at 20 m/s when the brakes are applied. The truck skids to a stop, so that the friction force is applied to the tires by the road.* The coefficient dynamic friction is uk = 0.60 *If it did not skid, then the friction force would be between the brake pads and the brake disc, which would be above the road. Calculate the distance that the truck travels before it stops. Use Σ MA = Ia + d x m*a for the following: 'O' Calculate the left side of this equation: Σ MA G L1 → L2 Calculate the right side of this equation: I*α + d x m*a d+ x m*a is from r x m*a (cross product), so, determine the sign by considering the cross product.

=↑ -7----- mg Sw mg 2. A drone of mass m (shown above) moves with a horizontal velocity v and is propelled by a thrust force ft produced from its propellers. To move, it tilts itself by an angle 0, which causes the thrust force ft to take on a component in the horizontal direction. This forward-directed force is indicated by ff in the diagram above. The drone is also subject to an aerodynamic drag force fa that acts in a horizontal direction and is proportional to forward velocity according to fa= -bv (regardless of 0). (a) Assuming ft acts along the inclined axis of the body, find ff as a function of the tilt angle and ft. (b) Find the necessary thrust ft needed to ensure that lift is balanced by gravity so that the drone does not move vertically. That is, find ft such that its vertical component as shown is equal to mg. Your answer will be a function of 0, g, and m. (c) Give the the small-angle approximations of these two functions when ≈ 0.
